Perhaps it was because Linghu Chun was defeated in the city of Hanzhong, Fu Donglou was no longer afraid of Linghu Chun, but he still felt shy when he mentioned it.

After pondering for a moment, Fu Donglou frowned and said, "After the defeat of Hanzhong, Linghu Chun's whereabouts are unknown. Even if he is still alive, he is like a bereaved dog. Shi Chaoyi must be trying to find Linghu Chun and settle accounts with him. Now order It’s too late for Hu Chun to run for his life, how could he buy supplies, and who is he buying them for? Could it be that he is raising an army to rebel against Shi Chaoyi?”

After all, when Linghu Chun was defeated, he took a lot of soldiers with him. Fu Donglou deduced this possibility after thinking about it.

"If it is said that Linghuchun is the one who bought the supplies, this matter is really strange. But the news from Jiangnan makes one have to suspect that Linghuchun did it." Bo Junhe went back to sit behind the table, It is also contemplative.

"Most of the merchants who buy supplies are Han Chinese. Many of the merchants who do business in Dachu and Beiyan are Han Chinese. Not to mention, some of the businesses in my uncle's family have gone to the north. Therefore At the beginning, there was no local suspicion."

"But later the officials at the inspector's wharf discovered that many of these sudden increase in caravans were composed of barbarians, and many caravans acted vigorously and resolutely, and the control of caravan members was extremely strict. A businessman who is loosely controlled, has the style of an army."

"Think about it, Linghuchun, the wolf king, spends most of the year disguised as a businessman traveling from south to north. Seeing the clues provided by Jiangnan, how can I not think of Linghuchun?" Bai Junhe paused After a while, he thought about it and said, "Perhaps because this opportunity is rare and the time is tight, Linghu Chun's caravan stepped up their work, which made people suspicious. As for who he is working for, it is impossible to say." alright."

"Could it be that he can still sacrifice his life for Shi Chaoyi?" Fu Donglou didn't believe it.

Bai Junhe smiled faintly: "Everyone thinks that my father is dead, but he is not living well. Sometimes what people see is only the appearance, the side that those behind the scenes want people to see. Ling Hu Chun is the general of Beiyan and Shi Chaoyi's son-in-law, Shi Chaoyi may not really doubt Linghu Chun and insist on his death, and it is possible that their monarchs and ministers are acting to confuse us."

"If Beiyan doesn't have Linghuchun, our vigilance against Beiyan will be relaxed a lot. If there is civil strife in Beiyan, I may seek the throne when there is no danger in the north. In this way, Shi Chaoyi can catch us by surprise. With a long breath, Bai Junhe's expression suddenly became serious, "Speaking of which, I have really neglected the defense of the northern line recently."

Fu Donglou rubbed his temples, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, I have a headache when I hear these intrigues, and it won't make sense for a while, so I won't give you any random ideas. Recently, I found some embroiderers and The cloth dyer is thinking about camouflage uniforms, I'll go to the workshop to have a look, you are busy with your work, I will come back later and we will have dinner together."

Pulling Fu Donglou's hand and shaking it, Bo Junhe nodded: "Go and do your work, I also have official documents to approve."

After leaving the tent, Shuang Yi, who had been guarding outside the tent, followed up to serve Fu Donglou.

"Shuang Yi, do you think Zhuo Cheng has something to hide from me?"

When asked by Fu Donglou abruptly, Shuang Yi was a little dazed: "Master, what do you mean? Do you suspect that there is someone else by your side?"

After flicking Shuangyi's forehead, Fu Donglou was a little ashamed: "What nonsense, can I not trust Zhuo Cheng's personality? Besides, the two of us get along day and night, how can I not know there are people around him?"

"Then what are you referring to...?" Shuang Yi rubbed her forehead and muttered aggrievedly, "Aren't you mad at the prince again?"

"Tsk, whose servant are you? Why don't you talk to me, your master? It can't be that the prince is angry with me... Bah!" Fu Donglou shook his head, "I let you take me away, what's wrong with you?" Where is it, I think..."

Seeing that there was no one around, Fu Donglou leaned over and whispered in Shuangyi's ear: "Just now Zhuo Cheng told me about the Jiangnan family selling at a low price. I always felt that he didn't say anything, but I never thought He hid something from me. I know that even if he hid it from me, it was for my own good. He probably didn't want me to worry, I was just curious..."

"Master, do you want me to inquire about it?" Shuang Yi also lowered her voice. If someone who didn't know saw this scene, they would probably think that the master and servant were secretly holding back the water.

After hesitating for a moment, Fu Donglou waved his sleeves: "Forget it, if I should have known Zhuo Cheng would have told me. It would be bad for you to inquire and let him know. Forget it."

After saying that, Fu Donglou strode away, Shuang Yi was stunned for a moment, pouted and trot followed.

In the tent, Bo Junhe leaned on the table, a stern look appeared between his brows and eyes.

"Mu Yan... God's calculations and ghost schemes are really powerful!"

Having also received the news from Jiangnan, Gu Xian was more worried than Bai Junhe, and his performance was that Gu Xian didn't go to court early and went straight to the harem to find the queen mother.

"Brother Xian means that those aristocratic families sold cotton fuel charcoal at a low price, probably not to protest against the imperial court, but to blatantly send a large amount of supplies to the Li family in this way!" Rao has experienced it for a long time Xiao Tongjin couldn't help but feel cold at this moment, and the astonishment that can be described as "exaggerated" appeared on his face that had been smiling all the year round.

"One leaf can't see Mount Tai. The hoarding and profiteering of the aristocratic clan is probably just a target to attract our attention to cover up Mu Yan's real intention. It can be said that from the very beginning, we were puppets in Mu Yan's hands, step by step. In a good trap." Gu Xian sneered, "Jiu Shu battle formation, I almost forgot, Mu Yan is a conspiracy! If he succeeds in this plan, he will get the full help of the aristocratic family, and the great Chu will be destroyed. Right in front of you."

After calming down, Xiao Tongjin thought for a while and said: "Linghu Chun has the 'credit' of Feng Yi, and it stands to reason that Linghu Chun should have an enmity with Mu Yan, even though he is now in despair. If you run for your life, you may not cooperate with your enemies."

"Furthermore, Feng Yi's death is strange, but Linghu Chun was involved after all. How could Mu Yan cooperate with the person who killed his eldest disciple? It's too...unbelievable..."

"This is really just my inference. But think about it, Shi Chaoyi has a grudge against the great families for destroying and stealing ancestral tombs. If Shi Chaoyi really took advantage of the bargain and bought those supplies, how can those big bosses have the time to do it now?" Competing with the imperial court, we must urgently ask Zhan Beiyan to get back his face."

Gu Xian spoke with a bit of self-mockery: "You and I are both from aristocratic families, so how can we not know the temperament of our family. Even if the family is big and successful, there will always be one or two dudes who don't know the daily necessities, but the people in charge of the family are all clear in their hearts. Ordinarily, how can I really not know who I am doing business with. I am afraid that Mu Yan's control over the major families is far beyond our estimation. These years, our eyes have been focused on Hao'er. Yan careless."

"Also, there are many doubts about Feng Yi's death. I still don't think Feng Yi is really dead."

In the main hall of Ciyi Palace, there are only Gu Xian, Xiao Tongjin and Lianhua, the empress dowager's confidant, and the rest of the servants have been sent out early. After Gu Xian finished speaking, the whole hall suddenly fell into silence, and the charcoal fire burned " The beeping sound was extremely harsh.

"Yeah... What a conspiracy... Over the years, he has been showing weakness everywhere, and we all have to forget his demeanor back then. Mingxiu plank road secretly concealed Chen Cang, but he used this trick again and again, but we couldn't see through it , were all designed by him, so we can know that his ability is probably from the time when You Sheng founded the country." Xiao Tongjin sighed, "At that time, what kind of thought did he have in helping the late emperor to found the country, and how much sincerity..."

"Brother Xian, what are you going to do in Jiangnan now? You have to find someone to check your guesses. Those supplies that have already arrived in Beiyan will definitely not come back, and the rest will have to be robbed. Can you still Allocate capable manpower to do it?"

"Tongjin..." Unprecedented, Gu Xian patted Xiao Tongjin's white and tender back twice, "Brother Yi is still alive, he faked his death back then."

On the glamorous face that could not see the traces of time, the expression froze instantly.Xiao Tongjin's eyes widened, and the eyes of this always resolute woman suddenly became soft and moist.

After a long time, Xiao Tongjin lowered his head and praised again and again: "That's good, it's really good. When we got engaged, the fortune teller said that you have a good fortune, and now it seems that this statement is really unnecessary."

"I thought Demin was gone, and Dejing was gone. Although we couldn't stay together, we still depended on each other... But I'm really happy for you. Dejing is still alive, so you don't have to be so tired. You really are ……blessed……"

De Min is the name of the former emperor Bai Yan, and De Jing is the name of Bai Yi. There are not many people in the world who know the names of the Great Chu Taizu and Xianrui King. Gu Xian and Xiao are the only ones who dare to call them directly. It's bright.Gu Xian never called Bai Yi's words because she felt that they were not affectionate, but Xiao Tongjin was the opposite, she felt that it was too affectionate.When Bai Yan was alive, he hoped that Xiao Tongjin could call him by his name, but he never waited for such a call in his life.

At this time, hearing Xiao Tongjin call Bai Yan like this, Gu Xian only felt sad.The queen mother of a country, a noble woman enshrined on the altar, is just a little woman longing for warmth after all.Her beauty may never wither, but her heart is slowly withering...

"We are dependent on each other, and this has nothing to do with Brother Yi and Brother Huang." Gu Xian glanced at Lianhua, who had been kneeling beside Xiao Tongjin and bowed her head silently, "You are the mother of my son, and no one can change that I, Gu Xian, never think that I have failed you. I cannot respond to your affection, but I will not abandon the responsibility that a man should have."

Raising her neck slightly, Xiao Tongjin smiled gracefully, and the calmness and nobility of a court woman naturally flowed out: "Look at me, I am still like a little girl at a young age, and I just forget about the business. Brother Xian It means that the matters in the south of the Yangtze River should be handled by the Supreme King, right?"

"Exactly." Seeing that Xiao Tongjin calmed down so quickly, Gu Xian couldn't bear it, but he couldn't do anything about it, "Brother Yi's feigning death is a trick that Brother Huang left behind to contain Mu Yan."

"Brother Huang is far-sighted. He has long been aware of Mu Yan's ulterior motives but can't find any evidence. For the long-term peace and stability of the Great Chu, this is why Brother Yi pretended to die to monitor Mu Yan in secret. If there is no change in Mu Yan, Brother Yi will assist the new emperor to get rid of him." Beiyan. All in all, brother Yi is the Great Chu barrier left by the late emperor."

"It's really difficult to be the Supreme King." Xiao Tongjin lowered his eyes, "Does Brother Xian have any plans for these aristocratic families?"

"Putting one's heart is the top priority, and punishing others is the bottom. If you don't want to take it for your own use but want to stand by and watch, it would be even better if they can further make them afraid of the Li family." Gu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly, "I came to you just because This matter."

"You want to use the Xiao family?" Although Xiao Tongjin asked, his tone was affirmative.

"The Gu family is now as famous as Wang Xie because of me, and the Xiao family can stand shoulder to shoulder with Wang Xie even without you as the queen mother. Naturally, the Xiao family can't do better."

"The courtiers all thought that I was at odds with the Xiao family, hehe, after all, there are still many people with shallow eyes." Xiao Tongjin leaned on the table and rested his chin in one hand, with a playful smile in his bright smile, "The Xiao family, maybe Negative."
